Gene namePRG4
Protein nameProteoglycan 4 (Lubricin) (Megakaryocyte-stimulating factor) (Superficial zone proteoglycan) [Cleaved into: Proteoglycan 4 C-terminal part]
Proteoglycan 4
SynonymsMSF
SZP
DescriptionFUNCTION: Plays a role in boundary lubrication within articulating joints. Prevents protein deposition onto cartilage from synovial fluid by controlling adhesion-dependent synovial growth and inhibiting the adhesion of synovial cells to the cartilage surface.; FUNCTION: Isoform F plays a role as a growth factor acting on the primitive cells of both hematopoietic and endothelial cell lineages.
